Hackathon will be held on 15 November 2025, live and online using virtual tools for which participants will get instructions after confirming the agreement.

participation.

3. To take part in the Hackathon, it is necessary to register and fill the application form that is visible to you below after you confirm that you agree with the conditions of participation.

Registration doesn’t constitute itself a confirmation of participation at Hackathon. Participants will receive an e-mail with notice of acceptance by: 11 November 2025.

Participants will be chosen by the Organizer and Facilitator based on materials submitted via an application form and based on the Criteria set out by the Organizer and Facilitator.
